We ordered the chicken shoyu ramen and the chashumen. The chicken shoyu ramen had a flavourful broth that was a bit on the sweet side for me, but my partner really enjoyed. We both loved the shrimp broth in the chashumen! It's rich and creamy and has a surprisingly strong shrimp flavour. Definitely recommend! We also ordered the bubble matcha matte and strawberry oolong tea which were both refreshing. We'll definitely be coming back to try some of the rice dishes!

Visited the new Asian fusion restaurant in the city…read more They are still in their soft opening phase; however, their grand opening is this Friday, September 1st, so they will have their full menu available. We ordered the three main dishes that they currently offered. All three dishes were good, but my favourite was the signature hellomen due to the unique shrimp based broth. However, we did find it needed a bit of salt to enhance the flavours, otherwise, it would have been perfect. My second favourite was the HK style char siu stirred noodles, which had great flavour and the char siu tasted good. Would have loved for it to have more green onions though. I also really enjoyed the HK style milk tea. It tasted just as how I remembered it when I was in HK before.

Everything was amazing especially the CHICKEN LO MEIN, MONGOLIAN BEEF, and CRISPY HONEY CHICKEN, (better than the orange chicken IMO). It's not the cheapest place to eat, (Chinese food is NEVER cheap), but the ambience is great, there's a nice terrace in the summer and if you bring home the leftovers and eat them the next day for supper that brings down the cost considerably. All in all an absolutely DELICIOUS experience!

Damecca seems to feature a bit of everything in terms of cuisine, as the menu options range from pasta to sushi. I had the mushroom truffle pappardelle, with scallops added. It was really good! The grape tomatoes were an interesting add I must say. There definitely was some fusion involved in some of their creations. Service was excellent here. Given the diversity of cuisines here, I'll definitely return to try something different.

Especially nice if you just want to get a quick meal and go. They also have high chairs for toddlers. We were greeted quickly and sat to our table right away. We went around 12-1pm and it wasn't busy at this time. Lots of food and drink options, took us a while to decide. My friend ended up getting their Banza Beef Noodle Soup and Langya Potato, while I got the Tofu and Rice Noodle and Iced Coffee. Absolutely love the Tofu and Rice Noodle (with spice), noodles were soft and slippery to eat, there was meat on it I think but it wasn't listed on the description and I couldn't tell if it was beef or pork. Warning, it was extremely spicy for me and I have moderate spice tolerance, but the soft tofu alleviated the spice and I was able to finish my dish.The hint of nuttiness from the walnut was a great addition to the dish and made it more interesting to eat since it had that crunch while all the other ingredients had softer and chewier texture. Would definitely recommend this place especially if you just need a quick meal!

I loved the buffet style display of food items. It all looked pretty good but I was in a hurry and didn't want to sample something that took awhile to cook. Some of the items are cold and frozen. They kindly asked me if I wanted the item reheated and I said yes please. The man in front of me ordered a lot with his credit card so yes they take credit. My item was only 7 dollars and of very good quality and I recommend that you try this food establishment if you like Asian cuisine. The business is not very well decorated yet but the cashier and staff are pleasant.

Every time that I've been there, the place is packed. The interior reminds me of a hole-in-the-wall type of restaurant, much similar to the local shops or known as in Cantonese, "cha chan teng," which you'll find in Hong Kong. When ordering, they provide you with a sheet that has all the food items. All you have to do is put a check mark next to the dishes you want, and flag the waitress/waiter over, and hand it to him/her. I have tried their dim sum, with the selection being limited, but they do offer a bit more on weekends and holidays. The barbecue pork rice was a generous portion and comes with some Chinese greens. The wonton noodle soup is also very good, portion again is generous, and also is served with Chinese greens and scallion. Other items I have also tried include the pan fried beef ho fan, century egg and lean pork congee, and one of the clay pot rices. To sum it all, good food, inexpensive, and large portions that's great for sharing.

+.5 for service…read more Noodle Express, as the name suggests, serves noodles, but also dim sum as well. As other reviews suggest, it's definitely a hole-in-the-wall establishment, and it's reflected by the relatively low prices for this place. My party of 8 tried a wide range of dim sum (some people I was with were having dim sum for the first time), including shrimp dumpling, pork dumpling, beef omasum, sticky rice, curry squid, eggplant, pork noodle rolls, shrimp noodle rolls, and golden dumpling buns. We also had two noodle plates: Singapore Noodle and Beef and Rice Noodle. The noodle rolls were really good, as well as all the dumplings and buns. Everything else was just okay, but for the price I can't really complain. Their curry squids are miniscule in size though, as well as their sticky rice...something to keep in mind if you're considering those two items. Service was excellent. Rushed, but excellent. The employees will attend to only if you wave them down, so don't expect them to just come over. Asian standards here. Nonetheless, Noodle Express does a decent job for dim sum at an excellent price. It won't get the 4-star approval for me as it's a case of "you get what you paid for", but it works for the clientele here.

It has cheese and vegetables and a lot of rice with a creamy, sweet mayonnaise type of sauce on top of everything. It is so incredibly delicious that even though it's a very big bowl with a lot of food I just cannot stop eating it. I chow down and engulf the meal lol. I also tried the restaurant's chocolate drink that's kind of like Nesquik but it's called a Milo. It's pretty tasty. The entire staff is so sweet and helpful. I chatted with our waitress a bit and it just enhanced the dining experience knowing that everyone working there is doing their best to be a great restaurant team. My friend had the chicken and rice meal. He ate everything too and enjoyed it. Next time I stop here I am definitely going to try their cheese smoothies. Yummy!! I love cheese.

I met up with a couple of friends for an hour. After that, I hung out at this mall some more. I spent a total of seven hours here. Some of that time was spent fetching a late lunch at Koya Japan. The food court at St. Vital Mall is still great. Although most of the vendors have changed since I last was here back in 2011 (yikes!), I felt like teriyaki. Koya Japan felt right. The all-male staff were nice and competent. I got the beef and chicken udon stir fry. I also ordered a bottle of Diet Pepsi. I paid with a credit card. Done! I watched two men make my meal in front of me. One worked on cooking the proteins. The other did the noodles. When the proteins were done, the man cooked the veggies. Then, everything came together. They were generous with the teriyaki sauce. I thanked them both and headed to a available table to hang out. This meal was delicious. The udon noodles were chewy and perfectly stir-fried. This place was generous with the chicken and beef. The morsels were yummy and juicy. The sauce was so good. I loved the veggies, especially the huge sliced mushrooms and bean sprouts. The Diet Pepsi was cold. It complemented my meal nicely. I couldn't tell you when I last hung out at a food court. It was enjoyable. There is free wifi throughout the mall, which allowed me to check my inbox and upload a few Yelp photos. This eatery was a good choice for a later lunch. I'd go back in a heartbeat for more good eats. (282)
